I reproduced the bug in QEMU. This affects people using SPICE in their VMs. QEMU command that allows the issue to be reproduced:
emu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -smp 2 -cpu host -m 3G -cdrom ./stonking- desktop-amd64.iso -spice port=5930,disable-ticketing -device virtio- serial-pci -chardev spicevmc,id=vdagent,name=vdagent -device virtserialport,chardev=vdagent,name=com.redhat.spice.0 I've found that something launches two instances of `spice-vdagent`. Both are launched by systemd and ran as live session user. Killing one of them stops log flooding and high CPU usage. I need to track what causes to two instances of `spice-vdagent` to be launched. The only difference between them is that one runs as a daemon and (not to confuse with `spice-vdagentd`) and second not (has -x option in it's cmdline). I'll check in my free time what causes this behavior and report back. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2163280 Title: spice-vdagent is flooding the logs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-unity-meta/+bug/2163280/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
